That and a Mustang trans could be bought for reasonable money, but I know I'd want to do things like upgraded turbos, standalone, etc. Then the cost doubles or triples. 😄 If you can do the 3.7L with stock management, it would be a much more affordable swap. 👍 1 Quote Link to comment

Turning them on my mileage goes from 17mpg freeway to 13mpg but power output is nuts on those tunes. 1 Quote Link to comment

Mattndew76 Posted August 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 They had to give me cash back for cutting my harness. I left specific notes to NOT cut my harness... So they ignored that too. Quote Link to comment
